Sertac Sanli said that he simply couldn’t refuse the call of Barcelona asking him to sign with them.
“Barcelona is one of the biggest clubs in the world. When Barcelona wants you, you can’t think twice,” Sanli said in an interview for Barcelona. “When Barcelona calls you, you need to come, you need to join them.”
Sanli signed a two-year deal with Barcelona earlier in July to play outside his native Turkey for the first time in his career. He’s coming off a highly successful season with Efes and winning both the EuroLeague and the Turkish BSL League titles.
Efes and Sanli actually beat Barcelona in the EuroLeague championship game. Now, the 29-year-old big man wants to carry this winning momentum to his new team.
“Winning everything basically,” Sanli answered when asked about his goals. “Barcelona usually wins everything: Football, basketball, handball. They want to win everything in all sports. And that’s what we want to do next season.”
